    I just got my laptop back from ASUS RMA, my previous two laptops both had the PSOD, they changed my screen in the second one and I am still seeing the PSOD only it happens sometimes when I load windows or when I plug in an hdmi cable to my tv and it always reverts back to a normal screen but it always scares me when it does happen. Does anyone else experience this with theirs or does yours always have a black screen for a second when plugging in an hdmi cable?

    I get it too. Stock drivers. Happens when I quit a game or change resolutions.

    Should I be worried? :(

    It went away a few weeks back, but now its back again. :/

    I guess we only have to be worried if it stays that way. so far it's ok, just hope it's not a precurser.

    Any update on this? Mine does the same thing and I'm hoping it wont PSOD permanently. Does changing to 10.1 drivers and flash vbios help?

    Those might help, I know after I did that the flashes went away.
